Guest Bromson Posted February 4, 2019 Report Share Posted February 4, 2019 I want to get more comfortable with sliding a bike around. I have experience on a street bike but not much dirt bike experience. I hear that getting a small dirt bike is a good way to get more comfortable with sliding, any suggestions on what would be a good bike to look for? I know someone that has a small two-stroke bike that would be inexpensive and seems to have plenty of power (I think it is an 85cc) but usually I hear more about people getting a 150cc or so 4 stroke instead. Any recommendations? Any major reasons to get a newer bike instead of an older one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apollo Posted February 10, 2019 Report Share Posted February 10, 2019 I'd say TTR125 or CRF150. You'll have a lot of parts availability, they have aftermarket supermoto setups available, and they're plentiful. Also, they can be raced in a lot of mini bike organizations.

Cobie Fair Posted February 12, 2019 Report Share Posted February 12, 2019 A number of the coaches have gone and fooled around with Rich Oliver...sounded like good fun, but not sure what bike they used...gonna guess it was a Yamaha :).

Dylan Code Posted March 7, 2019 Report Share Posted March 7, 2019 Yes like mentioned above TTR125 or CRF150. I also recommend going to a school first that uses those bikes to try before you buy, like Rich Oliver's school or American Supercamp.
